Hi Keshia, as far as I know, Braille is much stronger in Germany and probably
in Switzerland than it is in the US, and there is much stronger funding out
there for refreshable Braille technology for blind students.

Hello,

My name is Keshia and I will be visiting family this Christmas in
Switzerland.

Although I have been going there at least once a year since I was young,
I've--foolishly--never thought of people who are blind and how different
things might be for them there than it is here in America.

This year, I am going to change that.

I am very interested in knowing if anyone is from Switzerland--or even
Germany--and if we could talk.

Thanks,
Keshia
